He stressed that the country needed bold leaders to confront the multifaceted challenges in the area of security and economic problems.

According to Akande: “The burden that President Tinubu is carrying is heavier than that of President Buhari and it is important that it is said because now President Tinubu is not just carrying the burden of promise but he is carrying the burden of truncated hope.

“And it is good that he has rightly named his agenda Renewed Hope. Nigerians have placed so much expectations on the promises and now they are wondering how come they believed a lie.

“So, it is up to President Tinubu to show that those promises made were no lies.
